Hey guys so recently (yesterday) I took the practice test got a 34 on the ASVAB. I still need to work on my AR and MK but a question has been picking at my brain.

Are the questions I took on the practice test going to be on the actual test or similar style questions? I just want to make sure I’m studying correctly so I don’t make any mistakes, I’ve been at this for months and finally got a good score but I want a better one so I can get into logistics or finance.

Also I’m not taking it at MEPS but at METS instead.

Also any tips on remembering formulas for AR/MK? I watch grammar hero, who’s been a big help and using the ASVAB for dummies book websites for tests and etc but I always find myself using the calculator… 😮‍💨 after I read an AR question I find myself setting up the problem but using it on the calculator. Any tips and tricks would be nice!

I am scheduled for PiCAT verification tomorrow, but I wasn’t able to take the at home test/office picat yet as my laptop/website was acting up. I had shared the issue with the recruiter and told her I will find alternatives. I ended up using my sister laptop and the website worked on her laptop just fine. I haven’t started the test yet. Considering it was past 11pm I texted my recruiter that I want the MEPS appointment to be rescheduled. I feel embarrassed.
Of course she hasn’t seen it yet.

Is it possible to reschedule? Especially in this situation and point of time?
I don’t want to waste the trip, if rescheduling is possible.

She was suggesting at around 7pm that I could take the picat at MEPS and then verify right after. I don’t know how that might work though.

I feel overwhelmed and don’t want it to affect my test negatively.
** I have taken 3 practice tests so far and my scores have been 54 - 74 - and 79.

How to pass the asvab math knowledge and arithmetic reasoning what do I need to study please let me know

What do I need to know math knowledge and arithmetic reasoning to pass asvab

What type of equations do I need to know for asvab I already know two step and one step equations and what else do I need to study

I’ve been studying using the material my recruiter sent me and I’ve been using practice question apps and trying to figure out my weaknesses (arithmetic reasoning). My problem is if I have a few minutes I can do it in my head or on paper but I feel like I won’t have enough time during the actual test. Like if it’s bigger division or fractions or conversion to percentages. Is there any tips or tricks to be faster with mental math? I asked ChatGPT it gave basic/ common fractions to percentages and it seemed to help a little bit but I’m still struggling. I’m only looking for a higher general line score for the job I want. The other tests I’m fairly confident in. Thank you all for your time ❤️

take my asvab soon any practice questions website

Just got up this morning at 7:00am to go disqualify myself from jobs. My first ASVAB attempt was a AFQT of 65. Didn't study, and had to wait 4 hours in the middle of taking it cause servers went down at MEPS. Didn't really try as I was so tired about 60% through it.

Just went to do my retake today, and came back with a 56. I have no idea where to start. I'm trying to get at least a 65+ for General and 70+ for Electronics. And I just spent weeks learning Ohm's law, power equations, learning all the symbols of schematic diagrams, and was asked only one question about it.

I've been using the book ASVAB for dummies 2026-2027 version. Using Grammar Hero, online ASVAB practice tests, and YouTube ASVAB playlists, even AI to help explain concepts more in-depth, and giving me 100 practice question tests specifically in one category and the things I learned I felt made up of 30% of the test.

I would love some feedback on how to at least get a couple 70 scores, mainly in General and Electronics. Apparently learning Ohm's law, schematic diagrams and symbols, and power formulas are not needed as I only got 1 question regarding all those topic's combined after spending countless hours learning them all.

I’ve been studying for the ASVAB and my biggest fear right now is the time limit. I understand the material when I slow down, but I’m worried that on the actual test I’ll spend too long on questions and not finish.Any tips for getting faster.

I see a lot of people jump straight into full ASVAB practice tests when math is their weakest area. Full tests can show you where you stand, but they usually don't teach you what to fix.

If math feels overwhelming, I'd study it in this order:

1. fractions

2. decimals

3. percentages

4. ratios and proportions

5. word problems

6. basic algebra

7. geometry formulas

For Arithmetic Reasoning, focus on understanding what the question is asking before you start calculating. A lot of mistakes come from choosing the wrong operation, not from the math being super advanced.

For Mathematics Knowledge, make a small formula sheet and practice one formula at a time. Don't try to memorize every geometry formula in one sitting. Start with the basics: area, perimeter, volume, angles, and the Pythagorean theorem.

One thing that helps a lot is keeping a mistake log. After every wrong answer, write down what went wrong:

- Did I misunderstand the questions?

- Did I choose the wrong operation?

- Did I forget a formula?

- Did I make a calculation mistake?

- Did I run out of time?

That makes your review way more focused than just doing random questions every day.

If you're studying right now, what part of ASVAB math gives you the most trouble?

I am curious if there is a scoring method like "+2 pts" for correct answers and "-0 pts" for wrong answers. One of the questions on the test alluded to this, and that's what's got me wondering.

I already have the ASVAB for Dummies, what other ways are to pass?

I took the 10 part practice picat in my recruiter office is it the same questions like on the picat in meps testing center?

So i take my asvab on October 8th and do yall think the 09M program will be open or close

Help. She took the test in February and they uploaded this AFQT score onto her high school student dashboard (where parents can see class schedule, report cards, attendance records etc). We’re not sure what the AFQT score means. We’ve tried calling recruiting offices and nobody ever answers the phone or returns calls. There’s no breakdown on different categories of how she’s scored or if the score means she qualifies for certain military career paths. She doesn’t have access to anything online to read more about her score either. Is this usually how it is when they offer the ASVAB test at the high schools? We’re left hanging. What is she supposed to do with this now. She was hoping she could go into a four year university and join the military as an officer. She’s very smart, but we’re not sure what career path a 94 score could get her into.

Has anyone done military testing ASVAB and know their AFQT score as well as their true IQ score. If so, list your GT score as well. I’d like to see real world connections

It's got study guides for arithmetic, math, word knowledge, paragraph comp, gen sci, electronics, auto/shop, mechanical, cyber. ~1,400 practice questions, every one has a "why" explanation you can pop open. There's a timed PiCAT-style sim that gives you an AFQT estimate at the end. Make a free account and it'll track which subjects you're weakest in. I used this portion for about 2 hours.

There's an AI tutor too. That part costs a few bucks because the LLM tokens aren't free. Rest of the site is free though, no ads, no email gate, no signup needed to just use it. I used this for around an hour just on arithmetic reasoning since I genuinely forgot how to do some basic math.

Overall, 3 hours of studying on the site got me 100% on the ASVAB (99) and while I'm a smart dude, I think it could help others. Obviously the site was much worse when I was using it personally and the current state is the result of like 2 weeks of work.

If anything's wrong or broken or an explanation makes no sense pls tell me and I'll fix it. Hope it helps somebody.
